No, but the recent Daylight Savings cdev (I don't even remember anymore
if I got it off comp.binaries.mac or from sumex) allows you to reconfigure
DST to whatever randomness Congress decides on (unless they change it from
Sunday to some other day...).  I installed this and when DST started, my
Mac's clock was the only one in my home that I didn't need to change myself.
Good stuff!
